How should teachers handle misbehaving children?

Melissa Hendricks, a Cape Town-based teacher, told Briefly News that while students' behaviours are challenging, teachers don't have as many rights in the classroom as the children.

When it comes to discipline, she suggested:

"Follow the school's protocol. At my school, we have a demerit system where we issue a maximum of three disciplinary letters before the parents are called. If that doesn't help, a disciplinary hearing would take place, resulting in suspension."

She also highlighted the importance of classroom management:

"For younger teachers, it's important to establish your approach to the learners and find your classroom management style.

"Instead of focusing on bad behaviour, set an expectation of what you would like to see in them. We also have to consider some children's backgrounds, where good behaviour might not be modelled for them."

Internet users laugh at woman's behaviour

Teachers, no matter what grade they choose to teach, experience the good and bad of their profession daily. However, some do it all in the name of passion.

After watching Linaach express her emotions to the students, social media users headed to the comment section to laugh at the teacher's interaction with her students.
